Midlands, UK. Humour and interesting stuff. My toots may not all be original. I follow views without necessarily endorsing them, and I unfollow most non followers. I block those who just want to argue or abuse. Ex Cop. LCFC. Header picture is 'Arriving at the Hall' by John Atkinson Grimshaw.
Eight babies have been born in Britain using DNA from three people rather than two, to prevent them inheriting deadly mitochondrial disease. The pioneering technique, in which an embryo from the baby’s parents is combined with a second egg from a donor woman with healthy mitochondria, has successfully produced four girls and four boys without the incurable condition.
I am not clear whether these are octuplets or if this technique has been used successfully more than once.
